This glossary includes all terms that are required for the IB, as well as their respective definitions. It is structured in a very organized manner, going topic by topic and ensures that the definitions are crystal clear. It has also been professionally typewritten in LaTeX for the maximum visual attractiveness and ease when going over it.

Acceleration Correct Answer Is the vector defined as the rate of change of velocity. Ampere Correct Answer One ampere (1A) is the movement of one coulomb (1C) of change per second (1s). Amplitude Correct Answer Is the magnitude of the maximum displacement reached by an oscillation in the wave. Antinodes Correct Answer Are regions on a stationary wave where the amplitude of oscillation is at its maximum. Archimedes' principle Correct Answer States that the upthrust on an object is eq...
